While researching further out data for /Stralor/will-climate-change-decimate-humans-9f63de4b27a2 and /Stralor/will-climate-change-decimate-humans-a6501c666cd9 , I noticed that the UN had projections for what level the populations of various regions will cap out at. Will these medium-case projections be exceeded?

The relevant section from the 2022 UN Projections:

The combined population of Europe and Northern America is stabilizing, having reached 1.12 billion in 2022 and, according to the medium scenario, projected to grow slowly to just under 1.13 billion around 2038 and decline thereafter to about 1.0 billion at the end of the century.
